    I’d love to see you try Mell’s steam method! It looks interesting, but I wasn’t sure how it would work on looser curls. And i didn’t want to buy a steamer just to find out😉

    • @christifarris3334
      @christifarris3334 4 роки тому +1

      I bought a cheaper steamer from Groupon, and it works great! Mine has a smaller reservoir than Mell's, I think because I have to refill it to funish my hair. It feels so soft on my hair and I just glaze some gel over it when I'm done steaming. And I am good to go!

    That beginning! 😂😂😂
    I've found that any method where I smoosh my hair into a small space overnight just tends to make my waves really wonky. So I do an in-between method where I basically do the scarf tie, but leave the end open and let my hair lay flat as I sleep. I supposed I could accomplish the same thing much easier with an untucked buff, but I haven't bothered to invest in one yet.

    Most nights I pineapple with a satin scrunchie. I find the invisibobble pulls my hair sometimes when I try taking it out in the morning. I do the satin scarf on occasion (if I'm not super tired and feeling lazy at bedtime) as well and because it's a larger scarf, I'll purposely leave it lower so it doubles as a sleep mask when there's too much ambient light in the room.

      Invisibobbles get stuck in my hair too but I found these fabric wrapped spiral ties that don't stick to my hair

    I use a combination of the pineapple and the Medusa clipping. I gather my hair in a ponytail, wrap it around my hand and make almost like a bun. Then I use one big clip on top of my head to hold it all together.

    I avoided pineapples for so long because I thought there was NO way my barely wavy hair would bounce back the next day. But 2 weeks ago I tried one out and was shocked by the next day results!! It really is amazing.
    Also, as soon as you said the word "travel" I got very nostalgic thinking about those days.. lol!

    i like to use an adjustable bonnet! i do have a satin pillowcase but it’s not quite as smooth and satiny as my bonnet. i also feel like a bonnet helps trap the moisture in better! i might have gotten into the habit of wearing my bonnet on washday (during the day) if i don’t have anywhere to go and i want to preserve my curls for the next day.

    I would love to see you do a steam refresh from Mains by Mell. I have tried it but just don't seem to get as good of results as she does but I have more looser waves like you do. Also any chance you could do a generic refresh video for after working out what to do? I feel like my roots get super sweaty and even when I take it out of the ponytail right away they're still pretty stretched out. I think I over wash my hair because I work out most days before work.

    I'm also a wild sleeper, and I've found that your method works best for me: pineapple on a silk pillowcase. Thanks for the idea of traveling with a silk scarf to put over a cotton pillowcase! I'm super high maintenance and usually bring my contour memory foam pillow with me, but the scarf idea would be great if there wasn't space to pack a pillow. I'd also love to see a steam refresh on your swavy-curly hair! I've been thinking about buying a steamer, but all the people I've seen have curlier hair than me, so I wasn't sure whether it would be effective on my hair type/curl pattern.

    I started the cgm agai for like the third time, laziness and wanting to change my hair in different styles made me stop several times but then I always missed my curly hair and regret my choice. I hope following you helps me at keep going on and resist to the evil styling tools XD Anyway I tried to sleep with a bonnet and it always slipped away if I didn't use bobby pins but I didn't like it, I slept badly and had headaches no matter how I put the pins, so pineapple and satin pillowcase is it for me, sometimes simplicity is the best way

    I tried so many sleep methods but when my head totally covered I get really really hot while sleeping. Even with satin,silk head coverings and scarves.Heat escapes from your head and covering head completely traps the body heat.I found the pineapple method helps to keep me cool plus my spiral curls aren’t such a tangled hot mess.

    I’ve tried pineappling, but it pulls out my waves and my scalp is sensitive, so it hurts (yes I have tried invisibobble and scrunchie but they just don’t work for me). Loose braiding always comes out but it keeps it from getting too tangled, but then it pulls out my pattern. I’ve slept on silk and satin pillow cases since I was 16? So for 11 years. I think I may have to try the scarf at this point. Plopping overnight just smooshes my hair down and creates irregularities.
